What I find is that people who ask usually DON'T want to do whatever it is they are doing now to lose weight, so they are trying to either find ways to speed it up, or look for easier ways to lose. If they don't follow, it's likely because it's even stricter or harder than what they are currently doing. A.C.E. Certified…
